Scene Set For Hollywood Remake

Thursday, 12 April 2012 12:21 | | |

The Hollywood Theater marquee in La Crosse was lighted up this morning...a possible sign of things to come in the old movie house.

The Hollywood's new owner, Phil Addis, took reporters on a tour through the empty theater today. There's no screen, and all the seats were taken out, and there's damage to the walls and ceilings. Addis says restoring it could be a major task, but he thinks it's worth the effort.

The Hollywood used to seat up to one thousand people, when it had movies and live concerts. The building was shut down eight years ago.
